National Geographic rates the Inca Trail as the top 25 hikes in the world. And, according to Time magazine, Peru's Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is perhaps the world's greatest hike because it combines the best of both types of travel: a four-to-five day walk to the spectacular lost city of Machu Picchu that goes through snowcapped Andes Mountains and then the Amazon jungle; creating some of the world's most dramatic and beautiful scenery and terrain. Many experts believe that the Incas, the advanced South American civilization trekked this 27-mile trail five centuries ago as a holy pilgrimage that prepared visitors to enter the sacred citadel of Machu Picchu. After trekking the Inca Trail, you will also feel the same mystic experience. Machu Picchu tickets are included in all of our Inca Trail trek tours.

Machu Picchu can also be reached via train where visitors comfortably reach the town of Machu Pueblo (also known as Aguas Calientes), the town closest to the enigmatic 'Lost City of Machu Picchu'. Our Machu Picchu train ticket system allows you to search in real time all of the different train routes available. You will also see all of the Machu Picchu train pricing information.

The reason Machu Picchu is known as the "Lost City of the Incas" is because Machu Picchu is located high up on a mountain top above the Vilcabamba Valley. Unless you plan on hiking up to Machu Picchu (which is possible), you are going to need to take a shuttle bus to get there. On this website, you can easily purchase your Machu Picchu bus tickets and avoid the long lines at the Machu Picchu bus ticket counter.

It is the most important festival of the Inca empire to celebrate the winter solstice; the beginning of the Sun's New Year.
